In today’s conversation about prioritising our mental health and wellbeing, I catch up with Sally Brinkmann, Acting Director of Allied Health.

Sally talks about some of the initiatives that the Allied Health Department put in place during the pandemic that helped build connections and a deeper understanding of the different ways in which team members had experienced the pandemic.

It’s Crazy Socks for Docs Day tomorrow so don’t forget to put your craziest socks on – the bolder the colours and patterns, the better.

A reminder to everyone that if you or your colleagues are ever feeling distressed or in need of support, please visit our intranet for health and wellbeing resources including contact information for Caraniche at Work, Western Health’s Employee Assistance Program that provides a free and confidential counselling service for staff.

Kind regards
